- [Just Breathing Can Strengthen Your Core](https://www.panoramaortho.com/just-breathing-can-strengthen-your-core/): Breathing properly can have a lot of benefits – from reducing stress, relieving pain, lowering blood pressure to strengthening the core and helping with overall posture, balance and movement.  One of the most underrated exercises is training the breath. Often stress is to blame for this as we find ourselves stuck in a momentary state of inhalation when stress occurs. While the average person takes 40,000 breathes each day, stress is bound to catch up to us and affect the muscle coordination of breathing. Physical therapists find that when cueing patients to perform an inhalation, the majority of people demonstrate an elevation of the chest that lifts the rib cage upward toward the ears. This technique represents an overuse of the neck musculature rather than proper use of the diaphragm.

- [Time Out For An Ankle Sprain](https://www.panoramaortho.com/time-out-for-an-ankle-sprain/): Rory McIlroy, professional golfer with the PGA, recently sustained an injury to his ankle while playing soccer during his time off. With his injury it is now believed he may be unable to defend his title as the British Open Champion on July 16, 2015 because of the time necessary to recover. His injury to the anterior talo-fibular ligament (ATFL), the main stabilizing ligament on the outer portion of the ankle, commonly occurs with ankle sprains as the momentum of the body and lower leg is carried over the foot when it is planted and stationary on the ground. In severe sprains the ligament can stretch, causing the joint to become loose. With the forces generated in a golf swing, McIlroy's medical team will need to ensure that he has the adequate rest, rehabilitation and strengthening necessary to avoid long-term issues with the stability of the ankle. These injuries can commonly take 4-6 weeks to improve to the point where the ankle can sustain longer periods of activity.

- [Herniated Disc: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment Options](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/herniated-disc/): A herniated disc is one of the most frequently diagnosed spinal conditions and a leading cause of back and leg pain in adults. You may have heard it referred to as a bulging disc, slipped disc, or ruptured disc; these terms are often used interchangeably in everyday conversation, though they describe slightly different stages of disc injury. Regardless of the terminology, the core issue is the same: a spinal disc has been damaged in a way that may compress or irritate nearby nerves.
- [Spinal Stenosis: Understanding Symptoms, Causes & Treatment](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/spinal-stenosis/): Spinal stenosis is one of the most common spinal conditions we treat at Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center, particularly in patients over 50. The condition occurs when the spaces within the spine narrow and place pressure on the spinal cord or the nerves that branch out to the arms and legs. This compression can cause pain, numbness, weakness and difficulty with walking or balance, symptoms that can significantly affect quality of life.
- [Degenerative Disc Disease: What It Is, Symptoms & Treatment Options](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/degenerative-disc-disease/): Despite its name, degenerative disc disease is not a disease in the traditional sense. It is a natural, age-related process in which the spinal discs, the cushions between your vertebrae, gradually lose hydration, flexibility, and structural integrity over time. Nearly everyone will develop some degree of disc degeneration as they age, and for many people the process occurs without any noticeable symptoms. It becomes a clinical concern only when the degenerative changes produce pain or functional limitation.
- [Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery: Procedures, Benefits & Recovery](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/minimally-invasive-back-spine-surgery/): Many areas of medicine have made significant advances in surgical technique over the past two decades, and spine surgery is no exception. Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) allows our surgeons to treat many of the same conditions addressed by traditional open surgery, but through much smaller incisions, with less disruption to the surrounding muscles and tissues, and with a faster path to recovery.
- [Sciatica: Symptoms, Causes & Treatment Options](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/sciatica/): Sciatica is one of the most common reasons patients visit our neck and spine specialists. Characterized by pain that radiates from the lower back down through the buttock and into one leg, sciatica affects up to 40% of Americans at some point in their lives. While the pain can be intense and disruptive, the good news is that most sciatica cases improve with conservative, non-surgical treatment.

- [Is Total Disc Replacement an Option for Your Chronic Back Pain?](https://www.panoramaortho.com/resource/is-total-disc-replacement-an-option-for-your-chronic-back-pain/): If you’re researching surgical treatments for chronic back pain, you’ve probably heard of spinal fusion surgery. But what many patients don’t realize is that fusion isn’t the only surgical option. For the right patient, total disc replacement can be a powerful, motion-preserving alternative.

It is also one of the most vulnerable to injury, especially in Colorado. Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center offers the region’s top surgical and nonsurgical services from esteemed providers to treat those with pain, diagnosed injuries, loss of mobility, and or other issues related to the knee.
- [Hip](https://www.panoramaortho.com/specialties/hip/): It’s easy to take our hips for granted, but stiffness and pain can sideline you from your favorite activities or everyday tasks. Hip pain and joint pain can significantly impact your quality of life and may affect your ability to perform daily activities, limit your mobility, and reduce your overall well-being. These conditions can make it difficult to walk or sleep comfortably, further disrupting your routine.
- [Hand & Wrist](https://www.panoramaortho.com/specialties/hand-wrist/): Hands serve many essential functions in daily life, from gripping and lifting to writing and typing, and injuries or conditions can significantly impair these abilities. Trauma, arthritis, and nerve conditions can take their toll, leading to debilitating pain, stiffness, numbness, and peripheral nerve disorders like carpal tunnel syndrome. Common conditions treated by hand doctors include carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, tendonitis, fractures, trigger finger, sports injuries, and nerve damage. Our team of specialty-trained hand surgeons, hand-certified therapists, and staff work together to restore function, reduce pain, and get you back to doing the things you love. The expertise of our hand and wrist doctors ensures accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of hand and wrist conditions.

- [Arm & Elbow](https://www.panoramaortho.com/specialties/arm-elbow/): Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center has the top specialists in arm and elbow care in the region, which is important as the elbow plays such a critical role in our daily lives. Connecting the humerus, ulna, and radius, the elbow is critical for arm mobility. The bones, muscles, and tendons of the elbow work together to support movement and function. When it hurts, becomes injured, or simply doesn’t feel like it should, you need an arm and elbow team that can bring together doctors and surgeons experienced specifically in elbow care and elbow injury.
